Panchang in Sevan, Gegharkunik, Armenia Mon 12 Aug 2069

Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise. It begins at 06:57 on Mon 12 Aug, after that sunrise (06:08), and ends at 05:22 on Tue 13 Aug, before the next (06:09 Tue): it holds no sunrise. A kshaya Ekadashi is kept on the day it is current: Mon 12 Aug.

Parama Ekadashi: every date in Sevan

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 288°–300° is the 25th, Krishna Dashami. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 06:08 here. Navami ended at 08:44 Sun, before it. Dashami ends at 06:57, when the lead reaches 300°. The lead passed 180° at the full moon of 3 Aug, so the Moon is waning: Krishna paksha.

A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise. Ekadashi began at 06:57 and ended at 05:22 Tue, between the sunrises of 06:08 and 06:09 Tue. Monday reads Dashami and Tuesday reads Dwadashi: Ekadashi is a kshaya tithi here.

The night of Sun 11 Aug ran from sunset 20:02 Sun to sunrise 06:08, 10 h 6 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 40 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 06:08 to 20:01, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 44 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The night here, 20:01 to 06:09 Tue, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 16 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Mrigashira spans 53°20′–66°40′; the Moon entered its pada 1 at 53°20′. It leaves at 02:53 Tue, for Ardra.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 115.2° + 54.7° = 169.9°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 160°00′–173°20′ is the 13th, Vyaghata. It ends at 11:43, then Harshana.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Dashami is Vanija and the second Vishti. Vanija ended at 19:49 Sun, when the lead reached 294°; Vishti runs until 06:57.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:08 to 06:09 Tue, so the hours after midnight still belong to Somawara.

A month normally holds one sankranti, the Sun's entry into a new rashi. From 18 Jul 15:13 Thu to 17 Aug 02:03 Sat the Sun stayed in Karka, entering Simha at 17 Aug 07:00 Sat, after the new moon. A month with no sankranti is Adhika Shravana, before Shravana itself.

A purnimanta month runs from full moon to full moon, so its waning half comes first. It shares its name with the amanta month that its second half falls in: the new moon of 17 Aug, with the Sun in Karka, begins Shravana (Adhik). Until then this Krishna paksha reads Shravana (Adhik) here, and Shravana (Adhik) in the amanta count.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 23 Mar 2069, 05:14 Sat. Since then the Sun has moved 137° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2126; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1991.
